Teresa
Senior Dental Assistant
I have worked in dentistry since 1978 with 37 of those years in this office. I help our doctors provide superior, quality dentistry for every patient. It is an honor to be part of the process of creating beautiful new smiles. I always have our patient’s best interests at heart.
I love my family. I have been married to my awesome husband, Don, since 1980. We have two grown sons (both married) and five grandchildren. They mean the world to me. When I have free time, I enjoy reading, baking/decorating cookies, and arts and crafts, mostly scrapbooking and card making.
Michelle

I have been a proud member of our team for 25 years, and I enjoy being a part of the process of transforming smiles. I assist chairside, take X-rays and impressions, chart progress, and do treatment planning. In all of it, I look up to and respect our doctors because of the high-quality dentistry they provide. This makes my job enjoyable, and I always look forward to getting to know our patients while making their visits as comfortable and pleasant as possible.
I am happily married to Brian and have two children, Marissa, who is 31 and Devin, who is 22. I also have two cats named Ziggy and Ozzy. I love spending time with my family and enjoy working out, shopping, boating, and relaxing on the beach.

I always have a smile on my face at work because I truly love working in our office. My job is to make our patients’ experiences as comfortable as possible, and I have a great time doing this. I excel at helping others overcome their fears and I always have an encouraging word or two during procedures. Our patients are always sure to conquer their fears with me, and it is easy to do because of the smooth, painless work our talented doctors perform.
I am happily married and have two amazing children, Gunnar and Emily. In my free time I enjoy crafting and gardening.
Virginia (Ginny)
Dental Assistant/Treatment Coordinator for Dr. Jungman
I joined this awesome team in June 2015. I received my dental assistant certification in 1983, and am trained in CPR and ACLS (Advanced Cardiac Life Support). I completely enjoy dentistry and the excellent dentistry provided here. As Dr. Jungman’s treatment coordinator, I assist in the treatment plans generated by the doctor. I am responsible for helping you schedule and manage your treatment in progress, step by step. I help you understand the treatment recommended by using everyday language and can answer any concerns you may have. I understand that you, as our patient, have a lot going on in your life, so I enjoy helping you progress smoothly through your treatment experience. Dr. Jungman is a very popular dentist, as is everyone in our practice, so I act as your liaison to communicate any concerns you need addressed.
I was married in 1980 to my high-school sweetheart, Morgan! I have one daughter, Michelle, and two sons, Morgan, Jr., and Marshall. I have ten amazing grandchildren: Jason, Luke, Trey, Caleb, Cole, Mabel, Logan, Mahala, Lonikai, and Caden. I love being a part of the body of Christ and sing in the choir at our church.

If you don’t catch me at work, you will find me making memories with my beautiful children, Elena and Declan.
Jessica
Dental Assistant
Dentistry has always interested me because while growing up, I had great dental experiences. I strive to provide that experience for everyone I get the honor of helping with their dental needs. I graduated from the dental assisting program at MTC and was chosen to do my externship at this incredible office. Before I even finished my externship, they offered me a dental assistant position. There was no question that I would accept the offer.
When I am not working, I enjoy cooking, singing, taking walks and kayaking at the preserves. I also have two kids (goats) that keep me entertained.
Lucy

I was born in the Philippines and my family relocated here when I was 16 years old. I launched my dental career over 18 years ago and eventually moved into management and managed a private dental office for 8 years. I was fortunate to join this team and it is highly rewarding providing exceptional patient care. At this office, I am still growing in my dental career.
Outside the office, I enjoy traveling and creating memories with my family.
Faith
Certified Registered Dental Hygienist
I have been practicing dental hygiene since 1983, and the last 27 years have been spent with this office. I am very proud to work for our dentists, who are all professional and ethical in their treatments, and who truly care about each patient’s health as a whole. Being a dental hygienist, I am aware of the many links between oral and whole body health. Each of my patients gets a memento on his or her appointment card.
I am married to the love of my life and I have two boys, three stepchildren, and eight grandchildren. I love traveling, nature, photography, crafts, critters and family….not necessarily in that order.
Karen
Certified Registered Dental Hygienist
I love to make people smile and laugh. Though I currently work as a dental hygienist, I started my career as an assistant in this office in 1995. I really enjoyed my work and decided to return to school in order to become a hygienist. I left the office and was a stay-at-home mom to my son and daughter while finishing my degree in dental hygiene. I am very happy to have been back at our office since 2010, and use all of my collective experience to provide incredible care.
I live on 5 acres and have 4 horses along with 7 other 4 legged children. I drive 50 miles a day now and it’s because I do not want to work for any other office. I have two children that I am very proud of. My son is a Staff Sergeant in the Marine Corp. and my daughter graduated from USF and shares my love of animals.

Laura
CERTIFIED REGISTERED DENTAL HYGIENIST
“Smile in the mirror. Do that every morning, and you will start to see a big difference in your life”. A person’s smile is my favorite thing about them. That is what prompted me to start a career in dentistry.
At the age of 18, I started my career as an expanded function dental assistant. In 2016, I graduated with an AS degree in Dental Hygiene from St. Petersburg College. I have been very fortunate to work with outstanding dental professionals since 2010. Bradenton is my hometown and I am very happy to work minutes from where I grew up.
When not practicing dental hygiene, I enjoy gardening, reading, biking, kayaking, and spending time with my husband, two children, and two dogs.
Scarlett
Office Manager
I have been very happy to be a part of this team for 30 years. I love witnessing the great work that our dentists and team do. Their work literally changes lives. Because I do so much of my work behind the scenes, you may not often see me, but I always strive to keep our office running smoothly and ensure that our patients’ needs are taken care of.
When I am not in the office, I love to travel, visit our beautiful beaches and spend time with my family.
Chris
Assistant Office Manager
I was born and raised in North Dakota and in June 2017 moved to Florida to be close to the beach. My dental career started in 1993 at an oral surgery practice. From there I went to manage a general dentist office until my move here. In this office, I have found my dental home here in Florida. The doctors and staff are amazing and treat our patients as if they are family.
Back in North Dakota I have two sons and daughters-in-law, two grandsons, and one granddaughter. When I’m not working, I enjoy kayaking and going to the beach.
Kelly
Business Assistant
I started my dental career in California at the tender age of 16: filing charts, developing X-rays, cleaning rooms, and eventually assisting the doctor chairside. I lived in Florida for 20 years before moving to North Georgia. When we decided to return to Florida, I began my search for a new “work home.”
The rest, as they say, is history. I’ve been lucky to be a part of this amazing office since 2012, and can honestly say it’s the best place I’ve ever worked in my 30-plus years in the field. All of the doctors and team take the business of dentistry very seriously, and we pride ourselves on providing superior care, but do it with a sense of fun and family.
I have been married to my husband Doug since 1992. We have two terrific sons, Neal and Nick and an adorable rescue Chihuahua mix, Tucker. When I’m not in the office, I enjoy reading, RV-ing, and trying new recipes.
Kathy
Business Assistant
I am one of the first people you speak with on the phone and when you arrive at our office. I have been with this amazing team of doctors and staff since 2003. I love to see and hear all the excitement in the office between our patients and staff. Let me assure you, we will treat and make you feel just like one of our own family members.
When I am not working, I love to listen to live music, travel, and most important spend time with my wonderful family and friends.
Andrea
Business Assistant
I joined this practice in 2024 and LOVE working with patients. I am outgoing and friendly and have compassion for everyone. In this office, our doctors believe that patient care is their first priority. If you are nervous about your visit, we will ease your nerves and turn your experience into a great one.
Before moving to Bradenton in 2016, I lived in Lombard, IL, where I taught spin class for 15 years while raising my family. I have two adult sons and one daughter, who is just like me, all smiles. In my free time, I fish as much as I can.
